We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The solution has improved our organization with its firewall.""The solution is very easy to set up.""The most valuable feature of Azure Firewall Manager is the testing and configuration.""The tool's support is good.""It is easy to install and does not require any plugins for your browser."

"In our current environment, the most valuable feature from Tufin is their Network Map.""It provides a great visibility around the roots: Root implementing which can be done, roots that have changed, and what has been done. So, it's pretty useful when you have an audit going on.""We can check and analyze the current status of our firewall rules.""This solution provides a more organized manner for us to track towards compliance for our PCI audits.""The change workflow process is very easy to customize. You can do a workflow however you want, so you can have an approval every single step. Or, you can remove approvals on certain steps, automating some steps.""Valuable features include a central pane of management for all the firewalls and the ability to do queries on the rules and understand in which files the rules are configured.""All the basic functions work well.""The Topology Map, which feeds into our SecureChange - the latter being an automation platform - there's a lot of synergy between the two."

Cons
"There should be a simple one-click deployment for a firewall, rather than a set of setup instructions that include steps such as the DNS configuration, et cetera.""The price is okay. This said, the solution is certainly expensive in comparison with other cloud services.""The solution can improve the integration with open-source tools.""The tool's security features need to improve. It needs also to include a monitoring system for logs. It is also complicated to find a query on the Azure firewall.""We could do only one-way NAT-ing, where the traffic comes from outside to internal, to Azure, which is fine. However, when we actually do NAT-ed traffic to hit the firewall, that way is not working."

More Azure Firewall Manager Cons →

"They need to offer more support to vendors, such as Cisco, Checkpoint, Fortinet, and Forcepoint.""The topology needs improvement. If I click on the network tab, I can go get a cup of coffee, come back, and my topology is still not painted. Maybe, it's just because we have so many devices, but looking at the topology, it is too slow. The problem is that when I click on the network tab, I do not want to see the topology. I want to click on the "Next" button, so I can put in the source and destination, so I can see the path. However, I still have to sit there and wait for the topology to load, and it's frustrating. I'll click on topology and try to click that "Next" button in time to where I can get around it. But, typically, you have to wait for that topology to paint. When it paints it, it's just a bunch of black smudges because there is just so much there. It can't paint it to where you see something. I can always zoom out, or something like that, but it's really worthless.""The pricing could be a bit more competitive.""I would like to see improved role-based access.""It does not natively support all of the Check Point functions which is a big deal.""The change workflow process is getting better. I wish it was a little more customizable. Right now, my biggest issue is that it wants to optimize everything we put in. Sometimes, we need a rule to be more readable, and we want it to go in a specific way. Sometimes, it's difficult to get Tufin to accept that. It wants to optimize and reduce the number of ACLs. On the compliance side, sometimes you just want more ACLs, so it's more readable for an auditor.""We want to have the ability for a ticket requester to add somebody, or to give somebody view rights to their ticket.""The pricing should be reviewed, as it is a little too high."
